Party Time...

When we visited Hvar in 2012, the travel agent suggested we have our party at the Adriana Hotel (in the center). How cool to discover that he could book us the rooftop terrace. Jimmy went over there before our dinner to check on the arrangements; they’d failed to set up the sound system, but luckily he was able to get everything straightened out before our arrival.

The bar clearly met with Carl’s approval. It also met with ours as everything was even better than promised.

The cake and petit fours were beautiful and delicious!

The Sun Sets on Our Dinner...

Our Beautiful Photographer

The sun set as we were finishing dinner and we caught some nice photos before heading to the next location for the party.

Happy Family...

These photos speak for themselves how happy we were on this fantastic evening during one of our best vacations ever.

Our Milestone Celebration Dinner...

We hosted a delicious dinner to celebrate our family’s milestones: Melissa’s 50th, Veronica’s 16th, Ashlynn’s 13th and Jimmy & Melissa’s 20th anniversary.

Max and Ashlynn

Turns out that many of our passengers had milestones to celebrate that summer: Darlene & Mike’s 35th, Jan & Bob’s 30th and Holly’s 50th. In addition, we had three birthdays to celebrate during the cruise: Frank’s 55th that very evening, Andrew’s 14th and Olivia’s 18th.

Jimmy and I ate at DiVino last summer and were pleased that the food and service was still just as good.

Wine Tasting...

Happy Hour...

Our White Girls’ Milestone Celebration Dinner and Party was the only off-shore event attended by all 31 passengers. We started with a Happy Hour at the restaurant with some tapas and Croatian wines. Jimmy brought a few extra Hawaiian shirts to loan to the fellows that forgot to bring their own.

What a Beautiful Setting...

It was a bit hard to see in the previous photos where we were standing when we renewed our vows, so here’s a shot of the platform.

And here are two shots of DiVino Wine Studio where we held our celebration dinner. The location was fantastic as it was right at the port, but as it was on the 2nd floor, the views weren’t blocked by passing tourists like most of the restaurants at street level in Hvar.
